SPARROWS

Birds have been nesting under the eaves of my house. Sorrowfully one of their nests fell to the ground this morning and two baby birds were killed. As I picked them up it came to me so clearly that God was just as concerned as I was at the tragedy.

What an amazing God we have who is touched by the death of a baby bird, not able to protect itself against the forces of nature. Why do I say this? Jesus assured us that the Creator God, whom He came to make known to us, cares even about the death of a sparrow.

Man values sparrows lightly, two for a farthing, but God values them as His handiwork. How much more man who reflects His glory. The baby in the womb is known to Him too. How dare we tear them out of their God-given nest.
